I made this black bean salad for dinner tonight. It tastes amazing! I modified the original recipe to make it a little more calorie friendly. You need to make this immediately.

Black Bean Salad

2 15 oz cans black beans, rinsed and drained

1 cup frozen corn kernels, thawed

2 red bell peppers, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 Tbsp shallots, minced

1/2 tsp salt

1 Tbsp sugar (optional)

1/4 tsp cayenne pepper

9 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil

6 Tbsp lime juice

1/2 cup cilantro, chopped

2 avocados, chopped

Combine all ingredients except for avocados in a large bowl and mix well. Cover and chill for a few hours or overnight. Right before serving, add avocados and mix gently.

Serves 6-8
